What had decades of obiedience had brought us. yes, most of us and our families had never had it better but at what cost? The people had lost their land, lose control of most of our savings and have to send our sons to serve the state. The authorties now have too much power over our lives. This is very dangerous to the survival of the nation because we do not have any safe guard except for the words of a very old man.

This itself is terror and these terrorists should be stopped ! Revolution ?

I doubt anyone even know who is Karl Marx, let’s alone marxist conspiracy.

That is the point of the whole exercises. That to create fear of going up against the government and supporting the opposition party.

Didn’t LKY admit that “”If nobody is afraid of me, I’m meaningless.” ?

To be afraid, there must be fear. Needless to say the fear still exists today as yesterday.

Precisely, because there is no evidence against them. I think that is the entire rationale of the ISA: to detain people who (supposedly) have ideas of causing harm but gives no evidence for themselves to be charged. That is, ISA is a means against thoughtcrime.

When someone is alleged to have wronged, can I say that there should be evidence to substantiate the claim? Assuming there is evidence, under what situation would it justify not giving trial to the alleged ?

I am so puzzled. I assume most are not interested to get clarification on this?

However, I do really wonder the mood in the people as a whole. I wonder if TOC has in plan to conduct a street survey or some sort to find out what the people think?

If any of these cruel people are reading these, it is not too late to turn yourself in to the nearest police post. It is good for your soul! Do it now before you are judge by your “god”.

Those in government responsible for these detentions, such as the then Prime Minister, Home Minister, Head of ISD and indeed, all members of parliament who supported the motion to continue the detentions should never be allowed to forget that history will judge them. Hang your heads in shame.

“The authorties now have too much power over our lives.”

Yes, kee, how right you are. But we the prople have the power to change it.

Just ensure your vote in the next elections is cast for the right party.

We must work for the freedom of speech so that if anyone think there is something wrong, he or she can voice out and the rest of us can give what he or she says some thought. After all, Singaporeans are nowadays very well educated.
